Well I went ahead with Peg! lol..
She was moved over. I will take a picture of her tomorrow. However I get the feeling she will have a home by then.
People LOVE Three legged animals! That is one thing I have learned in my job. I don't know why, but they get snatched up quickly. I don't consider a pet only having three legs a disability either. Now my cat who was born with no eyes..She has a disability! ( of course you wouldn't know it. )
I like super cool cat names, but in my job you start running out of great ideas.
Anyway I get the feeling tomorrow will be Peg's day!

That was my first thought.. LOL I actually named a cat that once who was missing part of his back foot.Originally Posted by Trouts mom
Stumpy?
The first name that came to my mind was "Tripod".
However, even though the kitty is missing a leg, I'd still avoid the cliche names and name him/her something "normal". And for me to pick a normal name I need to see a picture because to me a name goes with a creatures appearance and personality.
For example "Chynna" my oldest cat. She is pure white and I didn't want a cliche name like "Snowy" or "Snowball". So I gave it some thought. She is white and her fur is silky soft like down and she reminded me of fine porcelin dishes. But Porcelin sounded stupid. I thought of "China", but didn't want to name her after a country. So I figured I'd vary the spelling and came up with "Chynna"

I have a three legged cat and I named her Trinity!
I would suggest Trinket - something precious and pretty, but also the 'tri' of her three legs!
Neither does my Tripod!
Actually, Oliver doesn't believe Tri has a disability either. Just ask him about when he's sleeping and Tri walks up and slaps him in the ears.
The Gimp or Gimppy
Well, now that it is too late (that's typical for me) I was thinking of:
Tri-Ceratops, with a nickname of "Cera". Sorry I am late.

how about calling the cat Tres as in Uno, dos, tres
How about Troika...Russian for three?
My daughter has a cat with his front paw bent and I call it Tripod as wellI was thinking Tripod as well!!!
I think Stumpy's a great name though
My friend's three legged cat is called tree. He's awesome.
Just a note that this thread is from 2007 and this kitty was named Peg.
